Clever and Cold Loathing.

First verse was originally written as a freestyle for Drake's "Dreams Money Can Buy"

lyrics

[Verse 1]
Uh
Not understanding the position I stand in
Not quite in demand, but they know that I'm the man
I wanna give them what they want, but it's not what they need
If I give them anything less, they'd accuse me of greed
I've seen it all, it's like our favorite past time
Build a brother up then shoot him down before it's half time
Started with no one caring to everyone declaring the fact
that all this time I was preparing to show the world that I can rap
Wise beyond my years, but I'm still here
It'll take some a while for that line to be clear
I don't fear anything not even fear itself
Comprehend that what you apprehend you tend to hold dear
And only God knows, why I feel cold
Why my heart's froze, why my heart's closed
Everything's exposed, even to my foes
Everything was all good just a week ago
I suppose...

[Verse 2]
Flow's so sick, doctors wanna throw up
Rappers got "lil" as a prefix cause they ain't grown up
My hands are law and order, you about to observe
When I smack people with both, Justice is served
Life ain't fair I know someone told you
You better close your mouth before I fold you
Oooh I'll never understand why they want you to fall
You think I'm weird? I ain't never think of you at all
Ice box in place to replace my own heart
Wish you good will that's ill from the start
I spit that Wonderama shit for me and my conglomerates
For now I'm on that college shit, hoping for the finer shit
I'm venting, what you think don't offend me
Bullshit thick like a fog I don't see it relenting
I care less and don't give a fuck, it's a part of me
I do care what you think, I don't let it bother me
Of course...

[Verse 3]
Ain't lying, I stand on shoulders of giants like a ruler
Born a winner, I was never taught on how to be a loser
To people I try to connect, who never gave me respect
When I share my success, it's you I will not select
Ian and I see your bullshit and allegations
Ian and I work with what we got, we need a vacation
Not into making friends, I'm making money and enemies
I'm telling me that they're the ones who will remember me

All these girls waiting, sex after marriage
I don't see why, the only change is the appearance
Don't get me wrong, ain't in opposition to matrimony
But that saddest story is it's more an obligating insurance
Need less of these people tryna give me their verbiage
Never look back, the only thing I'll encourage
I forget the risk, I can take the fall
If it's what I want, it's worth it all

I forget the risk, I can take the fall
If it's what I want, it's worth it all
